Robotics
Students are introduced to robot building and programming during our Robotics classes. The students will build robots to accomplish a specific task while using their imagination to make their robots better and more capable. Creativity and imaginative thinking are encouraged to solve problems to complete their tasks. The semester culminates in an epic robot sumo battle on the last day of class. Parents are encouraged to come on this day to cheer the robots on to victory. Let the fun and excitement begin!!!
Video Game Design
What’s better than playing video games? Making them! Students will learn how to design, program, and create the assets in their own video games. This is a great way to introduce your child to the career opportunities when they are familiar with technology. We will learn about:
• Intellectual Property
• Careers Related to the Video Game Industry
• Simple Storyboarding
• If/Then Commands and their Importance in Programming
• Creating Pixel Art with Animations Perfect for the beginner or the more experienced student.
Everyone gets to keep all of the games made in their class
